Pork Barbeque (Pork Shish Kabobs)

Barbecue or BBQ is a method for cooking meat, fish and poultry with the heat and hot smoke of a fire, smoking wood, compressed wood pellets or charcoal.
For Filipinos, barbecue is a stick of pork, chicken and sometimes meat grilled on top of a hot charcoal. We eat barbecue as a meal, snack and an appetizer. It is actually very simple to make but needs a lot of patient sliding a bite size pieces of pork on a bamboo skewer. The secret of the best tasting barbecue is the marinade. The longer you let it marinate the better the taste.

I finally made a perfect barbecue recipe for my taste after several trial and error.

Ingredients:

1 kg. pork, I used pork shoulder butt

1/2 cup soy sauce

1 cup red wine vinegar

1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar

1/2 cup oil

2 tbsp salt

2 tsp ground black pepper

2 tbsp lemon juice

2 tbsp minced garlic

1 onion, finely chopped

1 cup tomato catsup or banana catsup

1 cup mountain dew

Directions:

Soak bamboo skewers in water overnight to reduce burning during barbecuing.
